I just figured out how to add pictures to the Daily Dave. Let the craziness begin...

The pic above is the cover to the DVD of "Truly Great People", which is the most recent show I did with Andrew Tavani. The show is a loosely scripted half-hour sitcom about two guys in NYC trying to figure out what kind of TV show they want to create, while at the same time trying to figure out the meaning of life.

The show, while lacking in some production values because of our 50 dollar budget, was pretty funny and dare I say even edgy. I get even get shirtless at one point. We ultimately pitched the show to HBO, but, seeing as we're not celebrities, they chose not to pick it up. They did, however, try to send the DVD back to me, but I just kept refusing the package everytime FedEx showed up at my door. I've already got enough clutter in my room.

As I write this, Andrew and I are working on a new concept, though I have to admit that after creating and pitching two shows that haven't gotten picked up, it makes it harder and harder to create new ones. But, I suppose therein lies the challenge, so we'll just keep on creating.

We're considering selling a DVD with an episode of the Anti Show (the first show we did), along with the pilot of Truly Great People. I just fear that people will order it and then keep refusing the package. I don't know if could deal with that kind of rejection.

And now one quick newsworthy joke...

Tom Cruise told a German newspaper that "we're not alone", in an apparent reference to aliens being here on Earth. Later he clarified the statement by saying by "we're" he meant "I", by "not" he meant "am", and by "alone" he meant "crazy".
